katanapilot 01-07-2006, 08:27 PM A motorcyclist leading a funeral procession through the streets of Winter Park, Fla., was hit and killed at an intersection Saturday, according to Local 6 News.Police said Scott McNamara, 33, with Federal Motor Escorts was attempting to block traffic for a funeral procession on Orlando Avenue, near the Fairbanks intersection, when a Honda car hit him."A vehicle in the funeral procession that was escorting apparently stopped to allow a vehicle to cross from Kentucky to Orlando Avenue," Winter Park police Lt. Randall Durkee said.
McNamara was transported to a local hospital after being hit by the Honda and was later pronounced dead, according to the report."It is an unfortunate thing," Durkee said. "Funeral escorts as we all know with the traffic situation we have out there, it's very dangerous."The driver of the Honda car was not injured.

nixey 02-19-2006, 03:22 AM That's almost a daily occurence in the City (Derby England) a few months ago I was on a roundabout leaving the city when an old lady came up the inside of me, and hit the tail of my bike.
I was already leant over to exit the roundabout, it sat the bike up viciously but I leant it over harder and still made the exit, it was either that or hit the barrier.
A cop was a couple of cars behind me and when I pulled up to check my bike over, he stopped and told me he had seen it all and was I OK?
The Car driver had by this time buggered off (she took the next exit off the roundabout).
All the cop said was 'No real harm done son' and he cleared off too!
It's the same story every where buddy, the only ones who give a damn about bikers are either bikers themselves or have been bikers.
suzukik3 03-01-2006, 11:28 AM that's pretty ironic...
on a side note, why the hell did they call the car "civic"!?! get a life ahole! it's not because it's a civic! it's because it's a huge piece of heavy metal called a car!
media these days...

Exactly. The fuckin' idiot was probably too busy pressing numbers on the cellphone to be paying attention to things like driving.....
I say the system should ass-rape this idiot....
Oh God that is sad.
I remember when my friend Adam passed last year... We had a big procession from Moto Market in Acton to about 80 miles away down to Cape Cod where his wife's family was from (He was from England)... One of the Acton moto cops provided the escort and man... Sometimes that was hairy getting from Acton onto rte 128, and the craziest ship of that day was when he had blocked off the left lane of 128 to help us merge into traffic... Now that was hairy.
A real tragedy
